Staff and location were very good and I liked it. The fact that Serdika subway station was some 15 minutes away was a plus.

The hotel was quaint, I liked the caring staff and above average breakfasts. The location was top, within easy walking distance of a cathedral church.
Wi-Fi was very poor, made me a little nervous.

I truly enjoyed the hotel - pleasant location and cool staff. The room was warm, and cozy, with good Internet, wireless internet and flat screen TV with cable channels I needed. Reasonably priced and healthy tea and eggs for breakfast.
The bathroom I had was tiny.

Centrally located, where Alexander Nevsky Cathedral is easily reachable. Shtastlivetsa Vitoshka, set within 10 minutes' walk, was the best for dining.
